St.Vincent Orthopedic Center is the only facility in Indiana to be
recognized for its hip and knee replacement program. This marks the
third time that the comprehensive Orthopedic Center earned the Joint
Commission two-year certification. Along with earning top state honors,
the St.Vincent Spine Center is the only facility in the Midwest to be
granted the spine accreditation.

Orthopedic injuries and conditions can be painful and frustrating. Getting treatment for them should be simple.

That's why we created the St.Vincent Orthopedic Center, a state-of-the-art facility located on the 86th Street campus of St.Vincent Indianapolis Hospital, built with an emphasis on making the treatment of orthopedic conditions as easy and patient
friendly as possible.

The Center is designed to deliver efficient, high-quality care to
patients by bringing together orthopedic experts into one
state-of-the-art location. Housed within the Orthopedic Center are the
specialized St.Vincent Center for Joint Replacement and the St.Vincent
Spine Center programs.

Whether you are seeking relief from chronic pain associated with aging
joints, need care for a sports-related injury, or have been injured in
an accident, you want expert treatment that will get you back to living
life as quickly as possible. That's our goal, too.
